OK, you've convinced me! I'll start rolling it out.
Out of curiosity, do you limit it to security updates or do you let it go beyond that?
Security updates only. Other stuff should be managed. I did have some fallout over the weekend where someone had configured a machine without unattended-upgrades but there was a symlink in /usr that pointed to some config in /etc. What happened was someone changed the link destination so that when the package was upgrade it put the original link back but in a way this is a good thing as it stops people making stupid hacks like that!
